U Lied

Lyrics

U Lied Words and Music by James Horning verse I am not your sole salvation I am not your restoration I am not your project or your reason to go on. I was not the one with all those empty platitudes Never was I changing and displaying all my moods No and tears were never weapons in a sly attempt to sway Truth is truth and that I know has chased the lies away. chorus Cause Baby you lied, and there ain?t no looking back There ain?t no moving on It?s a matter of fact?Baby you were wrong Ain?t no looking back Ain?t no moving on Baby you were wrong verse You were not my only pathway You were not my golden day And you are not the reason that I am here today Oh and I see you have spread the poison to willing ears that hear No doubt drumming up support from those with equal fears And if it helps you compromise a life of hidden guilt Then chalk it up to lessons learned?and it?s a new patch on your quilt chorus Cause Baby you lied, and there ain?t no looking back, NO There ain?t no moving on It?s a matter of fact?Baby you were wrong There ain?t no looking back There ain?t no moving on Baby you were wrong, wrong Bridge You were wrong to think that you can?t be replaced Your spots already filled, your lie has erased?You?. chorus You lied, and there ain?t no looking back, NO There ain?t no moving on It?s a matter of fact?Baby you were wrong Ain?t no looking back Ain?t no moving on Baby you were wrong, wrong Ahh, you shouldn?t have lied There ain?t no looking back There ain?t no moving on, Baby you were wrong, wrong
